I need to settle an argument I started. My argument: olives are gross.

I will die on this hill.

I don't think you're supposed to drink the oil

I don't think so either but I hear some people do. Apparently, if it's genuine olive oil and not a phony then it tastes sublime. Haven't tried it though.

Heard all of this from a YouTube/Nebula video though so take it with a grain of salt. Wait no, that might ruin the taste...

Edit: found the video on Nebula and on YouTube - Your Olive Oil is (probably) a Lie

A little bit of salt makes just about anything tastier.
